The latest amkhvoan-In* VENTAON. THE VICTORY. 0> ELECTRICITY, Sine* Electricity baa been applied for lighting pu*ll efforts of inventors h»v« been directed to oenstrnet a lamp for general domestic use. The retsoa why this problem hie till -now not hem solved, is that none of the inventor* could rid them selves of th* idea of gas lighting, and that all have had adhered to the system of pro. during the Electricity in some centra' place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lame which should ever become generally q*efu nd popnlar, must be portable, liko an (Jii Lamp, and contain the generator of B'eetririty in itself, I. e., in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric flight Co hat at last succeeded in completely realising this ideal 6f Electric flighting, and there is no doubt that thie meet important inven tion will brint a boot a complete revolution in all branched of lighting. Oar Rl'otHe Lirao needs neither Machinery, Conductare. nor any expensive outlay, and la neither complicated, nor dis« agree*'le in manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refi" it overy four or five days with acid. The co t of ’lighting will be. a* eh'-ap a*gat (th eo fmr hj cent pur hour) and it has ••■ fore the l itter the immense advantage of neither p-o lncing heat, smoke ( nor carbonic acid, owing to, wfaeh the air is not impured, ami remains at the same degree of temperature, ttis further, abac- i lately inodorous, and does-not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply y timing the key, thus ao tiling all danger of fire, explosion or saffocatin . as in the case of gas, if the key is left open 5 and it must he oo.iceied that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further p'eferah'e to ■mv known kind of lighting for the follow ina reasons :

(I.) 1*« manipulation is so simple that any chilli can keep it in outer. (2.) Thai; the Lamp is portable, and can he removed lifci any Oil Lata >, from one p’ae- to ano'her.

(3.) That it neither -eqniies the disagr e able fixing of the wick, or the cleanin' of the cylinder, at in the case of other Oil Lamps.

(4.) That the light produce'* is a soft an ! moat steady one ; that it. never flickers, an 1 ■h -flame, though being equal in raver of lighting to gas, can he regnated to any deeree.

PAWSHNO K PAIR 0? TROUSERS FOR MEUICIMS. Jams Piuou Taoiut live* in Ponlnewynydd, noir Pontypool, Memmnothahirc. ns is now twenty-three yean of age. living with hie mother, • widow. Some eleven year* ago, then • mere boy, he went to work in the eosl pit a* a miner, in order to «a«i«t hie mother in rearing her family cf btc'e ehildreo. Soon, however, 'he little fellow broke down in health ; but the necessities of the family seemed to require it, and ho continued to toi in tbs mines, sufferng fit ths tims from the effects of indigettion, an agonising symptom being sthm i. in such a tronb'osmae form that the boy was unable to lio in bed. Working through the day. and resting as best he oonl I in a arm-chair during the night naturally under mined his eom'.ution. Tear by year his health grew worms and worse, until at last heumatism cams with all its dreadful agony. One joint after another b. came swollen and inflimed, so that he wag obliged to at >p work. In this sad plight the sow young man was confined to the house for two long years, suffering a'l that mortil could endure One physician after another was called upon to treat his complaint, but with no benefit for the poor fellow continued to grow worse and worse. Hoping to find tome means of relief, a const* I ta. ion of doctors waa held, when it waa decide 1 that an organic Hiac'se of the heart existed in an incurable form, and that medical aid could not afford relief. Ha was given up to die. These years of expensive medical treatment had exhausted ths little savings of the mother, and they bad no money to buy even the necessaries of life. But afon I mother never gives np in despair. There was on spark of hope left. Someone had told her of a remedy that cured so many oases—even when as hopeleis as this one seemal to be and the mother’s love went out for her dear boy. But how to get the medicine was the question. Their money gone. The boy had a new pdr of tnma. r« t at he ha t been f o ill to w- an an I the mother reasoned within herself *• if th r boy is to die be will not uee l th ra, so I may as wed pie ge them for medicine witn an effort to save Ids life." Strange as it may ap|>ear, the bottle* of medicine pro cured attbr chemist's hop in PontyoO--, with the money obtained from the pawn broker ffecte i a cure in t is hopeless case which had been pronounced as incurable. But it is only Just to say that if the chemist ha i known of toe wants of the family the medicine ooul > have been o tabled without a visit to Clio pawnbroker. It is oow nearly two years i nc • this took place, a .d young J a .ies Francis Tiiomas ha- been working in toe coal pit un eiground ever since, earn-| ing extra pay tor over-weik, which he is i anlo to perform. Of course, he ever had organic disease »f th heart, as was supposed The palpitation, ihoumat'sm, and astoiua were sunn oms of the mat disease, which w s dyspepsia, < r indigestion, for which the rune y was specially ad ,pt.-d. Those whs wish o communicate with this you g man Can write to him at t e above ad .ress, and ue will vouch for the curative pioneities of Weigel’s ay up, the articl that effec ed this almost mi aenl. us cure. The following letter is from a chemist, who thought the following fact shouol be mad- known ; “ lames Francis Tu-.mas, ~f Pomnewyny'<l, near Pontypool, age caeoty three, collier, was ill for nine years, u able to do any work for three yens, uev r !»y down m n d for nine years, bid t; gear ,n a stooping p ,at'lre, wastieatei bvue.aily all the doctors for miles ar .m.d who genera ly state i hia comp hint to be rheumali-iu an I heart disease of a chronic na lire, ami beyond all poa er to cure. \V heo hopj bad nearly died out, oe waspcrsuaie l to try rleigel's Sytnp ; a i l, to the d light of bis relatives and astouisumeii ol his neigh - uVs after taking half a bottle ue cod I lie down in bed.- After taking one bottle no went to ,wn hj, Mas now taken two bottles, and on with the third, and is now quite well and a’roiig.
